// Malay/Indonesian Base Phonetic Rules
// =====================================
// Phonetic rules for Malay and Indonesian (Bahasa Melayu/Bahasa Indonesia).
// Spoken by approximately 290 million people in Malaysia, Indonesia,
// Singapore, Brunei, and parts of Thailand and Philippines.
//
// Malay/Indonesian features:
//   - Austronesian language family
//   - Simple phonology with 6 vowels: /a/, /i/, /u/, /o/, /e/, /ə/
//   - No lexical tones
//   - Prenasalized stops in native words (not reflected in orthography)
//   - Glottal stop at end of words ending in 'k'
//   - Two allophones of 'e': schwa [ə] and [e]
//   - Digraphs: ng [ŋ], ny [ɲ], sy [ʃ], kh [x], gh [ɣ]
//
// Orthography:
//   - c for /tʃ/, j for /dʒ/
//   - ng for velar nasal /ŋ/
//   - ny for palatal nasal /ɲ/
//   - sy for /ʃ/ (Arabic loanwords)
//   - kh for /x/, gh for /ɣ/ (Arabic loanwords)
//   - Final k often realized as glottal stop [ʔ]
//
// Rule IDs: 10000-10099
